The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Continuum of Care (CoC) Program awarded a $342,884 Project Grant to Mental Illness Recovery Center, Inc. (M I R C I), a non-profit organization in Columbia, South Carolina. The grant, effective August 1, 2024 through July 31, 2025, will enable M I R C I to provide a range of housing and supportive services to address homelessness and assist individuals with mental illness. Key activities include rapid rehousing, emergency shelter, essential services, permanent housing placements, transitional living support for homeless youth, and comprehensive supportive services. Through sub-grant partnerships, M I R C I will expand its service delivery with entities like the South Carolina Office of State Treasurer and the Central Midlands Council of Governments. The project aims to quickly rehouse homeless individuals, minimize trauma, and promote self-sufficiency among vulnerable populations in the region.
